Was driving my 17 year old nieces (identical twins, natch) around and Destiny’s Child’s Jumpin’ Jumpin’ came on the radio and they were all, “OMG!  This so takes us back to primary school!!!”  And I was all, “OMG, this so takes me back to when I was working at an internet start-up that went bust in 2001!!!”

Oops.  I had to tell Bic this morning that the Tooth Fairy took last night off to go to a New Year’s party. I had forgotten to switch out her tooth.
